There’d be no one happier than me if you turned out to be right.

Believe me nothing would make me happier then to see the likes of Chris Matthews, Keith Olbermann, and the rest of those CNN and MSNBC drones out on the streets with signs saying “Will be unbiased for food”

Circumstances will dictate. I hope this is one of those A**-biting times.

I bet more people do after the dimwits try to finish off America and their base finds out they are included in the downslide.

They have 4 years to trash her, she will be unelectable by then.

If she's made out of what the left makes her out to be, then yes. But if she's made out of heartier stock (like many here and elsewhere believe), then the crucible of fire will make her stronger, and even more admired - AND DESIRED!

If the left was smart, they'd make her go away by ignoring her.

she could very well be a US, wild west, type of Mrs Thatcher. I loved Mrs. Thatcher as PM.

Well it will be because ‘the sky is falling’ crowd like you will believe it to be so. So, what are you going to do... stand by and let the MSM smear a good woman, or are you going to stand up and fight against it?

A member of Team Sarah actually mailed her a book on Margaret Thatcher, Sarah wrote him a nice letter thanking him for the book and that she read it. Let’s hope it inspires her

You’re an idiot in your presumptions of me. Revolting now would be reported in a 10 sec. spot in the local news. When 30% are ready to go, I will be at the front.

yes smears have little to do with the truth, BUT....
I think Palin is one person that would come flying back at you with guns blazing in retaliation, where McCain had no guts to do so, what a whimmpie choice we had. McCain had no fight in him, and I think Palin is...as she said.... A PIT BULL, WITH LIPSTICK.

Well, they must not be doing a very good job as her numbers are up quite a bit among all groups, including Independents, since Nov. 4th.

Sarah Palin is absolutely great. And the more the media abuses her, the more opportunity she has to show her grit and strength. It reminds me so much of how the press treated Reagan for so many years while he was CA governor and seeking to be President.

And for those fake conservatives who are finding it fashionable to criticize Sarah, they will have to deal with the fact that with the Internet, what they write or what they say on TV will not only never disappear, but will be readily accessible by everyone. We will not forget!!!

In the approximately 80 rallies in which she participated, total crowd attendance was between 700 and 800,000, not bad for a vilified VP candidate, I’d say. In 2012 she would easily get the 47 percent that McCain got, plus she’d bring in the approximately 2 percent, made up of Republicans, who stayed home. All she would need is to pick up about 3 or 4 percent of those who drifted over to 0bama because of anger over the economy, and she’d be home free. 0bama realizes this, and that is why his camp continues to try to tear her down, but it doesn’t appear to be working as well as they planned. Since the election she’s been named Conservative of the Year, voted the 2nd most admired woman in the country, and several other things as well. I’m looking for her to really make people sit up and take notice at CPAC, and Ziegler’s documentary comes out at the same time. Both those events will generate tremendous amounts of coverage, much of it Palin bashing by the usual suspects, but that is to be expected. The average person doesn’t hear as much of it as we do, since we are out looking for it most of the time.

Also voted the person you’d most want as your next door neighbor.

"Buying in kinda early, ain’t you? "

Doubt it...he/she bought into it long ago.

It's more likely that you need to issue a combined RINO-Troll alert.

“They have 4 years to trash her, she will be unelectable by then.”

Is that a prediction or a wish?

Prediction, I guess,if those are the only two choices. Certainly not a wish. I prefer to think of it more as an observation. But that is probably too ethnocentric.

Naa - Reagan was treated just as bad by the media, but he overcame, even without our alternatives. The media is not that hard to defeat...all you have to do is keep your base happy (i.e., something that Bush forgot about many times, and McCain never cared about).
